Looks sick.. but needs a bigger port.... unless I can build around it... if there is room for a LARGE landing pad, then cool, if not.... none of my ships will fit... it is impossible almost, to make a ship for 8 + Sarah and Vasco, that is small enough to use the small landing pad :P ... and I roll with a full crew of 8... so even my A class ships are too big for landing here. Should make it a LAREG pad... a Large pad lands small and large ships, but a small one only lets you land small ships :(
Hiya Apis4, yeah, I hear you, I usually have a crew of 6 to 8 members, and tends to build, well, massive battleships.
Although building a small ship for such a crew is easily possible and I also have a few in my fleet : just have to choose the right cockpit & habs, and fit them with the right reactor, engines, and weapons to maximize your crew potential.
Thanks for your comment, when I built the Spaceport I thought I had used the largest one that the Creation kit allowed, I'll check that out. Thanks again for the feedback.
It is habs. You need enough HABS with enough STATIONS, so you need at least a decent bridge, a computer core, and control stations. Then you need enough ROOM, that part is optional... but unimmersive AF... so you need at least TWO all in one births... my OCD will NOT allow me to run a crew of 8+ on a ship with only ..say... 3 .. beds.
Nor will I ever return to A or B class reactors or Grav Drives, I worked hard to access C class everything, for the same reasons as I cannot make a ship with less beds than crew, I cannot go back to weak shields and having to chose what to power down to power up the Grav Drive, or having to make multiple hops to closer star systems to go far away.
That being the case, I cannot make my ships much smaller than I already have them, almost all my ships go UP, not OUT, and they are still too big.
I COULD revert to smaller reactors and drives, but that would be unsafe... I have all those crewmen to considers, more power, means less chance of a critical failure in the dangerous, DEADLY void of space...also, better shields... and more powerful G-Drive means I have a better chance to ALWAYS make it home.... would you have me put them at risk? THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!!!
Now you could argue I could just roll with a smaller crew... but tbh.... life is not worth living without a the bevvy of space babes in scant clothing that service me... er... my ship!!!! If I cannot hear Sarah complaining I broke her, or Andreja telling me what we did was a Va'Ruun secret art or whatnot.... then what kind of sleazy space scumbag am I? A TERRIBLE ONE.
THUS.... a large pad, or at least a place to BUILD ONE, would be AWESOME.

On topic - OP, that is a nice find and an excellent idea to build a treehouse - don't have to worry about roaming critters walking in the door!
p.s. guess I need to go exploring Eridani system :)
